Node v5.1.0 (Current)

Jeremiah Senkpiel

Notable changes

buffer: The noAssert option for many buffer functions will now silently drop invalid write values rather than crashing (P.S.V.R) #3767.
- This makes the behavior match what the docs suggest.
child_process: child.send() now properly returns a boolean like the docs suggest (Rich Trott) #3577.
doc: All of the API docs have been re-ordered so as to read in alphabetical order (Tristian Flanagan) #3662.
http_parser: update http-parser to 2.6.0 from 2.5.0 (James M Snell) #3569.
- Now supports the following HTTP methods: LINK, UNLINK, BIND, REBIND, UNBIND.
- Also added ACL and IPv6 Zone ID support.
npm: upgrade npm to 3.3.12 from v3.3.6 (Rebecca Turner) #3685.
- See the release notes for v3.3.7, v3.3.8, v3.3.9, v3.3.10, v3.3.11, and v3.3.12 for more details.
repl: The REPL no longer crashes if the persistent history file cannot be opened (Evan Lucas) #3630.
tls: The default sessionIdContext now uses SHA1 in FIPS mode rather than MD5 (Stefan Budeanu) #3755.
v8: Added some more useful post-mortem data (Fedor Indutny) #3779.

Known issues

Surrogate pair in REPL can freeze terminal. #690
Calling dns.setServers() while a DNS query is in progress can cause the process to crash on a failed assertion. #894
url.resolve may transfer the auth portion of the url when resolving between two full hosts, see #1435.
Unicode characters in filesystem paths are not handled consistently across platforms or Node.js APIs. See #2088, #3401 and #3519.
